答案：B　C　A　A　C　B　A　C　C　B　C　B　C　B　C　Visit friends　The man and his wife　Go sailing　The man　Cook a big lunch 　　听力材料：第一节： 　　M：Our flight has been delayed for two hours．My partners are waiting for me at London airport． 　　W：Where do you come from? 　　M：Beijing．I was at a two-week conference on Space technology． 　　W：How interesting! I was there with a tour． 　　M：Really? Which places did you visit? 　　W：Apart from Beijing, we went to Nanjing, Shanghai, Xi’an, Hangzhou and Guangzhou． 　　M：Did you enjoy it? 　　W：Very much．It was one of the most exciting tours I’ve ever made．Was this your first trip to China? 　　M：Oh, no, I go almost every year．Unfortunately, it’s always on space-related business, so I’ve only seen the inside of conference rooms and factories．I haven’t had the chance to visit any tourist sites． 　　W：Oh, that’s a pity． 　　W：Ah great．Thanks for stopping． 　　M：Where do you want to go, madam? 　　W：Hilton Hotel, please．Brrr! It’s cold, eh? I’m freezing． 　　M：Come on in．San Francisco is usually cold in winter, you know．It’s often very rainy, which makes the weather colder and it sometimes… 　　W：Well, it gets very hot in summer, doesn’t it? 　　M：Not really．It gets warm in July and August．That’s the best time to visit the city．Uh, oh．Here comes the rain! 　　W：It never rains but it pours． 　　M：Yeah．I know it is none of my business, but may I ask where you come from, and what brings you to San Francisco? Are you here for sightseeing? 　　W：A polite conversation never hurts anyone．I am from Pennsylvania．I am here to attend a book fair．By the way, how long does it take to reach the hotel, do you think? 　　M：About half an hour if there is no traffic jam．Would you like to listen to some light music? 　　W：That’s lovely． 　　Most people know what a hotdog is．It’s a sausage in a roll．But do you know why it’s called a hotdog? Well, the long red sausage which goes into a hotdog is called a Frankfurter．It got its name from the German town Frankfurt．The sausages were very popular, but hot frankfurters were difficult to sell in crowds．One man, Henry Stevens, had the job of feeding the crowds at baseball games．He had an idea, why not put the Frankfurters in long hot bread rolls? This made them easy to sell．The red sausages were hot and had an attractive taste, and became very popular．But in 1903, an American cartoonist drew a long German sausage dog in place of the Frankfurter．So a Frankfurter in a roll soon became known as a hotdog．It was a joke, but some people really thought the sausages contained dog meat．For a while, sales of hotdogs fell, but not for long． 　　I was driving along the road to fetch my daughter from school．We were going to go swimming together．I’d finished work at about 4 o’clock and then gone to the post office．Then I’d stopped off at a shop for some fruit and bread．We liked to have some fruit and bread to eat after our swim． 　　I was driving fast when suddenly I saw the cars in front of me start to move from side to side． 　　I slowed down．Then my car started to shake! Perhaps something had gone wrong with my car, I thought．I stopped and got out of the car．And at the same moment a big tree by the side of the road fell down onto the car in front of me．I understood it was an earthquake! 　　W：Fifteen minutes to get there! And these suitcases too! I think we ought to take a taxi． 　　M：Not at this hour．Look at the traffic．It is moving very slowly．We can get there just as quickly as on foot． 　　W：Well, I can’t possibly carry this suitcase any farther． 　　M：Let me take it． 　　W：Don’t be silly．You can’t carry your case and mine as well． 　　M：Yes, I can．The cases aren’t that heavy．－Hum! 　　W：You see! They’re heavier than you thought! 　　M：Perhaps it is not a bad idea to take a taxi after all． 　　第二节： 　　W：Er…Excuse me． 　　M：Yes? 　　W：Could I ask you some questions? 　　M：Of course．What do you want to know? 　　W：I work for an advertising agency, and I’m doing some research．It’s for a new magazine for people like you． 　　M：People like me? What do you mean? 　　W：People between 18 and 25 years old． 　　M：Oh…OK． 　　W：Right．What do you do at the weekend? 　　M：Well, on Fridays my wife always goes to her exercise class in the morning．After lunch she visits friends． 　　W：Don’t you go out? 　　M：Not on Fridays．I never go out on Fridays．I stay at home to watch television． 　　W：And on Saturdays? 　　M：On Saturday afternoon my wife and I always go sailing together． 　　W：Really?! 　　M：We love it．We never miss it．And then, in the evening we go out． 　　W：Where to? 　　M：Different places, but mostly the cinema or restaurant． 　　W：I see．And now Sunday．What happens on Sundays? 　　M：Nothing special．We often go for a walk．And I always cook a big Sunday lunch． 　　W：Oh．How often do you do the cooking? 　　M：Um…twice a week…three times a week． 　　W：Thank you very much．By the way, what’s your surname, please? 　　M：Robinson．
